Schlegel Enterprises, Inc.

Schlegel Enterprises, Inc., a for-profit Subchapter S corporation based in Kalispell, Montana, delivers road and bridge construction, maintenance, and heavy equipment services to the U.S. Forest Service as a prime contractor under total small business set-asides, competing almost exclusively in that category across the past five years.

The vendor operates almost entirely within Forest Service Region 1 (Northern Region), which accounts for 207 of 352 awards totaling $134.9 million in combined potential value—71% of all awards and 83% of all dollars. Within that concentration, Schlegel's work spans road maintenance blading (61 PSC codes), forest-range improvements including culvert replacements and aquatic organism passage structures (73 PSC codes), fire suppression equipment provision (57 PSC codes), and equipment rental for incident response (46 PSC codes). Concrete recent work includes a $20 million single-award IDC for Region 1 road maintenance and forest maintenance services awarded September 30, 2025, running through September 29, 2030; a $50 million multiple-award MATOC for Region 1 road and bridge construction awarded December 16, 2024, running through December 15, 2029; a $130,554 delivery order for Antelope Basin Road improvements on the Madison Ranger District, Beaverhead Deerlodge National Forest (completion September 30, 2027); a $44,664 order for Forest Road 267 culvert replacement near White Sulphur Springs (completion October 1, 2027); and a $34,976.32 order for bridge running plank installation on eight Helena-Lewis & Clark National Forest bridges (completion September 30, 2026). Additional customer agencies include the Department of Agriculture Forest Service R2 (Rocky Mountain Region) with a $20 million IDC for road maintenance services, the National Interagency Fire Center with $1.5 million across six awards for heavy equipment and water-handling services to support fire suppression in Regions 1, 2, 4, and 9, the Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management (5 awards), and the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers Seattle District (2 awards, $1.5 million). The vendor also holds a $250,000 National Interagency Fire Center contract for miscellaneous heavy equipment such as feller bunchers and road graders and a $250,000 contract for heavy equipment with water capabilities to support fire and all-hazard incident response across multiple regions.

Activity has remained relatively stable—10 to 12 awards annually in 2023–2025, dropping to 3 in 2026 and 1 in 2027, reflecting a lag in new solicitation awards rather than performance decline. Seven awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $508 thousand, a modest recompete exposure. Schlegel's primary vehicle portfolio centers on Forest Service Region 1 indefinite delivery contracts: the current $50 million MATOC (32 task orders, $5.2 million committed), a $20 million single-award IDC for road maintenance (awarded September 2025, no task-order detail given in source), and multiple smaller IDIQs ($125,000 ceiling each for Lolo National Forest road blading in Seeley Lake and Nine Mile Ranger Districts). Across both NAICS (Support Activities for Forestry, 224 awards; Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction, 98 awards) and PSC codes, Schlegel's capability framing is concrete: heavy equipment operation, road grading and blading, culvert replacement and installation, aquatic organism passage structure construction, campground and recreation area reconstruction, fire suppression equipment provision, and routine maintenance on National Forest System lands. The vendor maintains no subcontractor relationships in the source data—all 352 awards are prime awards with no sub-awards recorded.
